[@simpsonsampson7662]

Hi paul, I was wondering if you would recommend skim coating a lath and plaster wall?

[@luv14lyf]

@help the bear Yogi gonna head over

[@sharonbrowder5856]

I LIVE IN A HOME that was built in 1905 with plaster walls and lathe planks(?) Inside. I NEED TO REPAIR A sizable hole. I'm seena lot of referrals for Big Wally's conditioner and adhesive. All to be used on the inside before filling in and plastering. If the video isn't mentioning BIG Wally's there is no mention at all of using a conditioner. Is it necessary? What is this conditioner comprised of that makes it a benefit? Is there some other brand or recipe I could try instead? The price for Big Wally's is ridiculously high if you ask me! One last question please... do you have a repair video foe plaster walls? Forgive me if I sound crazy. This video you commented or hearted of mine just came in and I see you did it just moments ago so I hope I'm catching you now! Thanks for sharing your superpowers with us!

[@stephenwgreen78]

You make it look so easy...I just had day 1 skim coating a ceiling & I need to learn to leave it alone🤣😂 I swear I put on and took off the same mud 10 times.

[@sandrasiah7825]

Just a mom who is trying to save money and do it myself. Thank you for this!

[@Thinknappythoughts]

I second that!!! This was very helpful.

[@sarahmcnamara4610]

Same! Very helpful technique. Thanks for sharing.

[@karengreene1999]

I skim coated a 15 x 15 dining room all by myself, 3 years ago. I still can not believe how good my previously very rough plaster walls look. Looks like they are drywalled. You can do it. I had no previous experience. Learned from KZbin videos only.

[@sharonbrowder5856]

Me toO! I hope your projects turned out well.

[@sharonbrowder5856]

I painted over an old wall. Not pleased. I'd not thought about doing this. I'm so glad I found this video!!

[@philjansen1670]

I'm a contractor helper who's been learning all this for a couple years now, mudding is an art so it's great to have guys like you showing your techniques, I always learn something from these vids, liked and thanks!

[@PaulPeck]

Glad you found my video helpful Phil!👍🏻 Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 😎 -Paul

[@politicalpartyagnostic268]

This video has taught me so much!!! My walls are turning out 1000% better since watching this!!! Thank you!!

[@kelechim-8406]

Hey Paul, This video is very helpful! My husband and I were terrible at drywalling a few years ago. Now I’m educating myself so I can repair some ceilings that have small bits of paper damage and nail pops. My first go at it was horrible! But after watching this, I now understand I need to apply pressure on the leading edge. I think I’ll switch to a wall repair so I can get some practice before attempting the ceiling again. Thanks so much!

[@sissyvt]

I'm a new home owner and I always mixed the mud and handed my brother/boss the tools. I've always watched and asked questions why things were done a certain way. Now I pretty much have a general understanding of how things need to be done. I really enjoyed your video and I'm looking forward to watching more.

[@stephenzwemer2905]

Been searching many KZbin videos for instructions on how to skim over my wallpaper removal in kitchen and bathroom. This video is the most helpful. Thank you Paul.

[@twzagame]

Remodeling my kitchen and removed the wall cabinets. Found a mess of holes and old wall paper with tattered edges. Real un even surfaces and found this video. This is exactly what I needed as I wasn't sure how to prep the wall for paint to install floating shelves. Thanks for all the helpful info and tips

[@Jabstylebeats]

Residential/Commercial Painter here, Still working on my mudding skills and thats why Im watching your video, Nice work man, Im definitely Subscribed after watching this. Thank you for the clear instructions.

[@maxballiet8632]

1840’s house with horsehair plaster, very rough and uneven surface. I butchered my first attempt at skim coating, but I try to treat every failure as a learning experience. Watching this helped a lot.

[@forgetfulfarmer1759]

DIY’er here. You make it look awfully easy. Can’t stop watching, it’s like watching the Zamboni haha. Thanks. I’m givin’er tomorrow on a wall that’s driven us crazy since we moved in

[@patrickpoitras1485]

Your trick on how to apply pressure to the sides of the knife was really helpful

[@number1pappy]

Thank you so much for this video! We moved in to a "fixer upper" and the previous owner had textured every wall in the house with a coarse sponge dipped in drywall mud and made swirls on the walls and let it dry with the peaks and then painted it! I wish I could send you photo so you could see how horrible it looks! Anyways replacing all the sheetrock was out of the question due to cost so I have to skim coat the walls. I've had to sand the walls as the peaks were up to 3/4 of an inch in places. But once sanded this method your showing is working awesome! It literally looks like brand new drywall! I cant thank you enough!

[@susannoble4252]

Just started the bathroom tear out this morning. My walls make your walls like perfect - but I will skim coat as you show because you can always improve a mess! Builder put wallpaper directly on sheetrock with no prep.

[@snakeplisken3931]

I'm a diy guy that found your videos looking for knock down texture matching. I appreciate guys like you that share your experience and expertise on KZbin. Thanks very much!

#drywalltube

[@johncrawfords1621]

Nice work! Exact content I needed. I have a 900 sq ft condo that has had a smoker in it. orange peel sheetrock over cement walls. Popcorn ceilings. Once cleaned this is what I'll do. You posted this 3 years ago and its still relevant. Thanks!

[@TacticalWee]

I recently bought and older, flipped home. The flipper was a bit lazy and the walls could definitely look better. This was super helpful and gave me the confidence to start tackling the ugly walls. Thanks!

[@ronb493]

I'm a DIY. Although I've done a lot of work over the years. I've learned so much watching your videos. You're an artist! Thanks for the advice.

[@PaulPeck]

I really appreciate the kind words Ron!💥👊🏻 Thanks so much for watching and subscribing my friend!😎 -Paul

[@screenmaker55]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! I have a bathroom that looks just like these walls before you did your magic. So happy I ran across your videos before I did anything else after removing the wallpaper. Did not know about the sealer, so that is a bonus! I will be referring back to these very informative videos as I continue my adventure into making my bathroom walls great again. Thank you, Paul!! BTW, I am a DIYer in all things around my house, until I mess it up so bad I have to hire someone to do the job right. Thanks to fantastic videos such as yours, I can usually get the job done myself. Again, thank you!!

[@dacdac52]

I'm a DIYer, my wall looks similar to what you're doing in this video. I'm going to give it a try, one thing I've learned is you pros make everything look a lot easier than it is. I didn't even know where to start you give a lot of good info, thanks and keep up the good work.

[@daveloz1]

Hi how did you get on with the plaster? I'm a DIYer so looking into this my self

[@voicesbytracey]

I’m a homeowner that is trying to update the property. Won’t be my forever home but still need the walls smoothed. I started taking the painted wallpaper off and it looked at hot mess like the one you showed in this video. Thank You, I now have an idea of how to make walls look respectable again!

[@davidrodriguez3348]

I used to do contracting work and I had my hand and some drywall jobs and repairs now I'm a DIY I just bought a house so I'm refreshing my memory of things I used to do and I'm glad to see some new techniques that you're showing us thanks for the tips

[@wretched_spawn8694]

Hey bud! I tore all the old particle board paneling of the walls in my room and the drywall paper looked just like the walls your working on in this video👍🏻I didn’t use the exact sealer that you did but “kilz” premium sealer and primer did the trick.this was a very informative video🙏thank you!

[@johnathandoerty1021]

That "Problem Surface Sealer" really is key. I'm into my Fifth"coat" of Compound, trying to get everything "Level", again, after removing my Wall-Tile --- sure wish I had known about that special 'Surface Sealer' when I had started... Great Vid! - 👍

[@scottlind4553]

DIYer here. Thanks for making these videos. Great concreteness and helpful monologue.

[@torolabie5608]

Paul I’m a 64 y/o DIYer same issue with post drywall problem wall. Removed the old wallpaper skin and was using soaking water to get the old backing off. Screw that im going to heed your advice on using Zinnser Gardz. PS. Watching your other videos. I feel I need to pay you for the excellent education. What a great teacher you are and know your craft. Kudos.

[@miyako87]

I just signed the lease to my first ever commercial space. Investors just fell through and now I’m on KZbin University trying to figure out how to do this myself. THANK YOU for this detailed video. I’ll be doing this tomorrow on the space after peeling off some bamboo paneling that was glued to the wall. I wish I could send you photos to ask for detailed advice but I’m so grateful to see this process!!!!!!

[@ShortFatNBald]

Glad to see a video with what my walls actually look like. Just bought my first house and spent 40+(still more to go) hours so far removing wallpaper with a steamer. Some walls had 3 layers on it and most weren't prepped or painted before they put the paper on so ive got a lot of holes and gouges in the rock that they papered over. Cant wait to get started figuring out these techniques.

[@beverlyhilburn2293]

Best way to remove wallpaper is blue dawn and water in a spray bottle. Doesnt take a huge amount of dawn but it peels RIGHT off. And use a semi sharp scraping tool. Be sure to wear gloves if you can. It gets sticky and nasty. But you don't have to. A professional wall repair guy helped me with that tip.

[@jenjenfarts]

Wish i could have this done in my room! ): i don’t think my step dad would be willing to since we have high walls. but i love how you respond to the people with questions in the comments! Great work as well. (:

[@PaulPeck]

Hey there Jen! I really appreciate your kind words!👍🏻 Thanks so much for watching and commenting my friend!😎 -Paul

[@adth123ify]

You are so talented! God bless you for sharing your knowledge. So many people can not afford to pay a pro for this service and you are a wonderful teacher!

[@maintman420]

I've been skimming many years before skimming became a trend, 14" is my skimming tool as well, fast and easy clean up lower cost to the customer as well,,,,but,,,it does require actual skill and not relying on a tool for the skill required. Nice work!

[@jld0001967]

Respect your talent. Admit I became mesmerized in lower left corner at how quick and automatic your wrist motions were to load and apply just the right amount needed for stroke. Like a relaxation video for people with messed up walls. :) Thank you for sharing.

[@PaulPeck]

Wow, thank you!👍🏻😎

[@kimberlykeyton1226]

#DIYer here. Have crackling (unintentional) in our 1950's rental bathroom and kitchen paint. Your videos are exactly what I needed to figure out how to cover that. Thank you! Plan is scrape, patch (if needed), zinsser Peel Stop, skim coat, texture, PVA (maybe or some other primer), paint. Wish me luck!

[@josephvulich9448]

I'm a painter by trade, and occasionally, I have to skim coat walls. I was taught by a professional drywall contractor how to skim coat, sand, and then one last skim, and a little more sanding to finish up. I've also learned how to do knockdown texture on walls, and there's not a lot of homes that have that type of finish on their walls, so it's nice to be able to add that to my resume. I really enjoyed your video, and you have a new subscriber. Enjoy your weekend brother! ~Joe ✌😎

[@ajscott1293]

We just purchased a house and the garage is wood and all the drywall had termite tunnels in it. So this is exactly what I needed perfect video definitely a great teacher!

[@nancyecuer402]

I just pulled down paneling that had beautiful old sheet rock under it that I want to keep. The sheet rock looks like boards in an old beach house, in other words it has a groove in it at intervals. The paneling pulled some of the Sheetrock paper off and it has imperfections, so glad to find your video. I hope I can modify your method. I’m a 65 year old retired nurse who is remodeling the house I lived in when I was born and has been rented by me to a couple for 37 years and until they both passed away. I was married to a carpenter, we built our first house, which was a pole house 20 feet off the ground in the woods. I have been remolding and building anything I wanted or needed since then.

[@kfuerst1453]

I'm an DIYer. Love the video. Working on a basement remodel where there was wall to ceiling pinstripe textured wallpaper. Hoping to be able to get the walls looking good after seeing this.

[@stuartwelsh5905]

Paul, I appreciate you taking the time to share your expertise. I'm a DIY'er but not new to to drywall, tape and bed but always seem to find a situation that requires a new technique. I am in the middle of a bathroom remodel in which I have replaced all the drywall so the condition of the surfaces are good. The room is small, 5' wide x 8'm walls but the job is complicated by the fact that I framed a dome vault aka cloister vault ceiling. For those who can't envision this ceiling imagine an umbrella that only has 4 panels but unlike a pyramid shape still rounds to a dome at the top. This ceiling therefore has four concave panels that meet at the top almost like the top of a sphere but where they meet at the walls they have defined corners. Those corners where they meet each other are changing in angle every inch, in addition were each panel meets the top of each respective wall the angle is not a common degree angle, ie not 90 or 45. All this brings great challenge to even an experienced DIYer in getting smooth layers of mud into the corners when taping as well as when skimming. Is there a tool you are aware of that might help do these odd angles and concave surfaces? Perhaps a Pool Trowel? Thanks, Stuart

[@jackshiner7917]

I watched your video and found it to be very helpful. I am getting ready to skim coat a house I just bought and I will use this method. Thank you for posting this video.

[@sarahjaney97]

Thank you so much for this video! The pov camera angle made it easier to understand. I have to do this to almost my whole house but I'm excited to learn!

[@la-gl4uh]

I'm patching my daughter's room where she destroyed a 20"x24" section of drywall requiring a huge repair area. Patching is done, now ready to paint and was wondering about priming the patched area. This is a great tutorial on skimming - hope I don't have to do any soon. One important thing I learned as a DIYer, first just get the mud on the wall and then move it around and smooth it out, get the mud on the wall first. LOL.

[@kimberlypelaez3817]

Thanks for all the advice...just took down a bunch of super old wallpaper in my kitchen and had a few small drywall paper tears. This helped a lot.

[@tj9796]

Appreciate your low key style and informative content. 🙂 Inspired by your channel to take on the first drywall project in years.

[@cynthiaalbertson285]

Thank you…exactly as the job I’m working on, wallpaper removed etc. I’m a DIY homeowner frustrated in the middle of trying to get a small bathroom walls ready to paint…keep sanding, applying mud, vacuuming over and over and over lol…I will try your method, thank you

[@MichaelSmith-rp9ef]

First time DIYer for mudding over wallpaper removal just as you are and you make it look way to easy. Luckily none of the walls I'll be doing are as large as yours. Very informative.....

[@Sarousdeath]

[@griffin804]

Thanks for the videos man! I’m a local handyman starting out on drywall repairs and your videos help a ton !

[@zachroyal4701]

Thank you for your video. I love the idea of the paint roller to put the joint compound on the wall. I always have trouble putting the compound on the wall evenly. Now I can attempt the wall I need to fix (just removed wallpaper) and go back to the one I had difficulty with. Thanks again!

[@jonwiersig5800]

Hi, Paul. I am a DIY guy. I watched your video yesterday and today I skim coated my bathroom walls after removing wallpaper and priming with Gardz. Removing wallpaper is of the devil! This time my walls were not as bad as in your video, but the walls had plenty of damaged drywall paper. Your description of diluting the mud to pancake batter or yogurt helped. However, I diluted a full 3.5 gallon box of lite drywall mud with 60 ounces of water and that was twice as much as I needed for the 208 square feet I skim coated. Your rolling method of applying the mud worked GREAT, much faster than using a drywall pan. Where I live all drywall also is textured, so that will be my next step on my bathroom project using a paint roller and some of my extra diluted drywall mud. I am glad for the texture step as I think that will hide my lack of skill. Your skim was "like glass." My skim coat turned out pretty good maybe not that glass-like. Thanks for your helpful video!!!

[@stevenphotog4594]

DIY'er here. You are da bomb dude!! Actually currently working on redoing a wall and wanted to skim coat it so straight to youtube to look for vids and ran across yours. I've seen a couple of other videos but yours is the best by far I've come across. Excellent work and was wondering how to not get lines and now thanks to you I know. I will be trying your technique today, can't wait. Thank you sir for sharing your knowledge. Knowledge is power.

[@PaulPeck]

[@brookegerman8093]

Thanks for the video! My husband and I just removed 2 layers of wallpaper with multiple layers of paint on top of the wallpaper! It was a MESS. 10 hours later we are ready to skim!! We couldn’t find the primer you used in stores and didn’t want to wait to order so we got a multi use primer from the paint section. It seems to be doing the job! Now we know to order the Gardz ahead of time from now on (doubt we ever do this again🤪). Thanks for the tutorial. It has really helped!

[@wm4285]

thx really insightful Went cold turkey to figure it out for me on a textured ceiling/walls. Mistakes yes, but with time & muscle it's coming out. Your video was what I needed to know first starting out as a total green horn. Thanks so much. This helped me finish nicely ! Cheers

[@raindogred]

I was a painter many years ago. My Dad and 2 brothers were all tradies here in Australia..but they never mess with serious plaster work, jusy typical patchwork, backfilling..plastering is a whole different trade here in Australia.. I was the black sheep and got an office job. I have the skills but am very slow. I'm doing my bathroom, going to be tiled wall on aquachek gyprock. I am doing the drywall myself, but didn't want to mess with ceiling, so just removed the old cornice as neat as i could. I've decided the ceiling definitely needs a skim coat..this vid has helped a lot..feel a lot more confident at least..pretty sure mine won't go as smooth as this and i'll be covered in sanding dust :) whatever it takes i geuss !!!

This is definitely an art. It also takes some practice which is obvious you are an expert. (Experts make it look easy). I’ve had to learn how to do this with the help of videos such as yours because I’m finding in next to impossible to find anyone to do “small”jobs…. It doesn’t hurt to know how to DIY, saving money in the process. thanks for the link to tools, having the correct tool for the job is vitally important.

[@PaulPeck]

Thank you very much!👍🏻😎

[@deesmith9]

Hi Paul new to your channel. My Husband Dr Kirk is attempting to skim our upstairs bathroom. You have the perfect example in this video as the previous owner wallpapered directly to the drywall with what appears to be some contact cement or hide glue. It would not steam, soften with water or chemical - so we scrapped 1-inch sections at a time to keep from gouging the walls but still pulled copious amounts of brown paper loose. Thanks for the tips and the encouragement that we could make it better. PS just priming the walls made it 100 times better.

[@davidmccumber8804]

Great video! I am a carpenter but I always end up doing drywall.

Also so I can do more projects confidently around the house and them not be a halfassed DIY job because I thought I knew what I was doing.

[@MediaBear]

Right on. I removed previous owners “Tuscan style” textured wall from our kitchen :/ That part was bad enough but the wall I was left with was close to what you see here. This is my first time doing this and with the tips I saw here I was encouraged I could, and indeed it is looking pretty good! Even my wife and one of my daughters were impressed haha.

I am working on a 1980s bathroom that had wallpaper. I ran into the same issue with torn drywall paper and wallpaper remnants. I used the gardz and skim coating and it worked great

[@jaynegordon8680]

Thank you...such a brilliant video with clear instructions. I'm a first time DIYer with a lot of rooms to skim coat. Hopefully by the end I'll be better then at the beginning! 😂🤞👍

I'm a General remodeled of 50 years, I did enjoy the skim coat video. I do a lot of drywalling and skim coating. I had one customer who tried to remove the wall paper past and left over paper with a electronic belt sander. What a mess that was.

Hey thanks for your videos. I’m a DIY’er. Got an older house on nice land. Doing renovations 1 room at a time. Never been good with drywall finishing. Ps, I hate wallpaper !!! And the work it brings after removal
